Asian Sculpture/ Carving “Buddha” in carved wood

About the Item

Gorgeous and original Asian sculpture made of wood. The composition is striking, arising from a section of tree trunk, with a Buddha carved in the centre of the grain. The contrast between the organic texture and the geometry of the circle is played with, reinforcing an idea of ​​harmony and contemplation, emphasised by the central niche where the Buddha is inserted. Buddha, on the other hand, presents a traditional iconography, with a meditation posture and fluid clothing. The eroded wood suggests a process of natural wear, while human intervention in the carving provides a symbolic and spiritual meaning. The metal base elevates the piece, highlighting its sculptural character. Made in the 20th century, probably in Thailand.
